Magaluf holidays

There’s so much more to Magaluf than just its party reputation. There are beautiful beaches, a relaxed atmosphere and lots to do, which makes it perfect for families. You’ll never be bored here, with plenty of waterparks and water sports for all ages and tastes.

Whether you want a thrill or to soak up some beautiful scenery, you can find something that suits you. If you’re heading to Magaluf in search of the nightlife, the strip is a buzzing hotspot of music and colour. It’s one of Majorca’s clubbing hotspots, which can be made even better by picking up the MCP (Magaluf Club Pass). This will give you free access to the best clubs and bars on the strip, saving you money and guaranteeing good times.

Things to do

Start the day by spending some time relaxing on a sun lounger, swimming in the crystal clear waters or chilling out on the soft, sandy beach. When you’ve got the energy, hit the water sports centre and hire some water skis or challenge your mates to be the last one standing on the banana boat. On a really hot day, take the bus to the local waterpark and check out the water slides or float away on the lazy river. In Magaluf, nights out start early and finish late. Head to the Strip for pre-drinks and games at the five bars in the Magaluf Club Pass; Bananas, Boomerang, Carwash, Tokio Joe’s and the pre-club bar called Icon.

Famous nightlife

Magaluf is home to one of the best party atmospheres in all of the Mediterranean. Anyone who heads here on holiday must be willing to sacrifice a good night’s sleep for a long night of partying. Prepare yourself for themed nights, karaoke nights, foam parties and massive club nights at the best clubs in Magaluf – you’re in for the time of your life. 

Great beaches

After all that partying, you’ll be looking for somewhere relaxing to recover the next day. Luckily for you, Magaluf is blessed with a stunning stretch of coastline, with soft, white sand and swaying palm trees. You can pick the perfect spot on the beach and dose up on vitamin D whilst catching some much needed Z’s. Or try any of the great water sports available to you, such as jet skis and banana boats.

Lots to do

Aside from the beach and the nightlife, you’ll find plenty of other exciting ways to fill your time in Magaluf. There are loads of great activities in the area such as waterparks and theme parks if you fancy a fun day out. Two that certainly aren’t to be missed are Katmandu Park, with its interactive rides and games; and Western Park waterpark, with its fast-paced rides and excellent dive shows.
